TUESDAY, MARCH 3, 1931 NO BLOOD SHED The report that Lord Irwin and Gandhi have reached an agreement on the India dispute is, to speak baldly, good news. Possibility of a continued protest by Gandhi and his people was imminent and may have led, in time, to further revolutionary outbursts. The India affair is similar in many ways to the condition of the early American colonies. Gandhi's chief vexation was the British tax on salt, and the Bostonians of 1775 were similarly vexed by England's tea on tea. But what our ancestors accomplished by war, the Indian people have obtained through verbal conferences, and the results, whether you are a pacifist or not, lend a conglatulatory note to modern progress and arbitration. A weasal is called an ermine in winter and many a rabbit is called lapin in a jacket. LEGAL HOLIDAYS FOR CRIMINALS The distance between freedom and jail for those known to be engaged in unlawful pursuits is no better illustrated than by the record of the courts in Chicago yesterday. "Searface AI" Capone was sentenced to six months in jail for contempt of court. Reputedly wealthy, Capone is now attempting to live out the span of a natural life without intervention of a leader hall from some rivale machine gun. He has been arrested once, before two years ago in Philadelphia for carrying a concealed weapon. He received a year's sentence, and probably was gid to get it, for his incarceration guarded him against exposure to death outside the prison. Yesterday, Capone's attorneys paid a new $5,000 bond for him and probably will file an appeal on his sentence within thirty days. In another courtroom William "Three Fingered Jack" White went on trial for killing a policeman. The murder was five years ago and in that length of time White has been convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment, only to have the supreme court order a retrial for the officer, who is accused and defense are going through the costly and tedious process of selecting another jury. Perhaps the greatest contrast in the gap that lies between crime and its subsequent punishment, if any, is to be found in the case of Peter Von Frantzius. Two years ago seven or eight men were mowed down by machine gun slugs in what has come to be known as the Valentine's day massacre. Frantzius's case brings that slaughter back to memory, for now, two years later, something has been done about the wholesale killing. A man has been arrested and charged with selling firearms without keeping a record of the sales! The thoughtful freshman says that the person who thinks miniature bridge hasn't been invented should take a look at his score. NOT A TAU SIGMA DANCER Our attention was aroused at the scope of the dance last week at the Tau Sigma recital, and pondering over a few old memories of Terpichore that have become pretty well attached to our mind, we hauled them out and reflected on them for some time. They were amusing. We remember especially the contempt we had when we were in our boyhood for people who danced. Obviously it was too sedated an exercise; it not only smacked of parlor lounging, but it also branded the participants as foolish things who found pleasure in the company of girls and who probably used perfume, read household articles, and frowned on our gang's shouting as we played one-o-cat or football out in "the street." Then, a few years later, a metamorphosis took place, and we, too, thought of casually dropping into some likely girl's home, and nonhalenally dancing to some tune like "Red Hot Mamma" or "Sipinong Sorrow" and kindred music that was so much in vogue years ago. We thought of it, but never actually attempted it. There was something amazingly complex about moving one's feet in accord with one's partner, and not only that, but what did one any or do? Whereas we had, in the past years, viewed social gentlemen with opprobrium, we later begat a huge respect for their talents. Taking recourse to the want-ad page, we studied with assiduous care advertisements from dancing schools. Almost all the notices, we recall, began with a statement, "Don't be a wall-flower." It was true that neither our features nor the shape of our body bore analogous likeness to any flower, wall or meadow. What was most heartening about the advertisement was the promise that "beginner dance immediately" no spectators. No embarrassment. The intricacies of the dance were explained. "The whole business was unexplained," wrote, and needed explanation, but some still never got around to attending a dance. And then, when we finally did master up enough fortitude to adventure blushing out on a dance floor, the night took on a sudden heat, our feet grew into Gargantuan scuffles, and prickling sensations sprinted excitedly across our back, chest, cheeks, and eyes. It was an era when the orchestra's ecaphyton took on speed and more speed, and patrons of the hull raised and leaped nimbly, executing fantastic steps hicher and yon. It is disturing to remember the rest of the evening. Brushed and tired, we gritted our teeth, mopped our brow, and apologized to all the young ladies who had, before our appearance that night, been good friends. We were chasing an elusive ghost called gracefulness, and it had a particular ability at evaporating. In fact, we never achieved a close scrutiny of it. Later we grew philosophic, contending that some people were cut out for some things, and other people for other things, and dancing, apparently, was not our Muse. And we suppose all those neighborhood girls who have eyes us哀泣 since that memorable night are glad we are philosophic. University women present puppet show at meeting." Headline. Looks like an advance story on the convocation for women tomorrow. "BIG BILL" AND "ALFALFA BILL" "Big Bill" Thompson and "Alfalfa Bill" Murray make one of the most interesting comparisons of figures in the spot light of American life today. We find a distinct likeness between the tall gray-hairy Mayor of Chicago with his circus tattoes, declarating that he is going to drive prohibition and internationalism out of the Republican and the hay seed Governor of Oklahoma to jump from the back wood into the lime light with a reform platform as long as the constitution. The likeness is gone, however, when we picture "Alfailla Bill" walking into the Governor's office at 6:00 a.m. I make his lunch at his desk, and still hard at work when most people are starting for the evening movie; and when we look back a few years and see "Big Bill" sitting calmly back of his desk puffing on a half-chewed cigar and declaring that the public schools must close because the City of Chicago is "on the rocks." Some prisoners in Olathe robbed the jail vault. It is necessary for men in any profession, we suppose, to keep in practice. An Oklahoma City barber was discharged for cutting "Aflair Bill" Marvin as he shaved him. A cutting blow no doubt, in these times of depression YALE LOCKS AT HARVARD Subsequent to H. L. Menken's derivative comments on Midwestern "wowersisms" and antiquated prejudices, comes the wave from the East that Harvard will cease using Yale locks. As yet Mr. Menken has had no time to enlighten the country concerning this new Atlantic folkway, but probably will contend it's due to Kansas and Missouri attending Harvard, and inculcating such tendencies toward hide-and-dogms as they exist out here or the Plains into that venerable institution. Our Contemporaries IT'S A MISTAKE GOVERNOR MISKATE, GOVERNOR The department oversees all warry Woodding that the salaries and wages budget for the state schools be reduced 5 per cent in a serious mistake. It is a surprise to many of the governess that the teachers must pay a tax of that amount to satisfy the whims of politicians who seek a reduction in apprehension There is no movement in Kansas to reduce salaries of other state, county or school workers. The state schools have been kept out of politics since 2001 and their friends to protect them from the politicians. The result is that the schools now are the first to bear the brunt of any economy drug, no matter how ill-timed or ill-advised. The state institutions in which it is processed to serve —from Kansas City Times. Higher education is one of the prime interests of Kansas. It cannot be fostered by cut in salaries. The program must receive $12,400 for two years, when the total state budget for all public purposes is around 23 million dollars a year. The state would receive $15,000 dollars to the five schools affected. It would mean crippling the faculties and breaking down the morale of teachers. The state would have no chance of citizens in the institutions.

State to introduce forms of politics and elections in the state is the women's governing body is compendible but can hardly be called at arm's length. OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. XXVIII Tuesday, March 5, 1931 No. 121 For example, consider the men's rushing rules. They stipulate that no man shall be rushed by a fraternity but that data set by the Pan-Hellenic Association should not be pledged to a fraternity before 10:00 p.m. the last day of rush week. This also is a common rule for the fraternity that waits until rush week begins to begin running activities will find few new men interested, and the fraternity that waits until the last night to begin pleading with the students who have been carrying cledge buttons of other fraternities for at least 24 hours. It is probable that the same condition exist in the W. S. G. A. election. The team must organize will abide by the rule, only to see the election carried over their organization. It is possible that the fact that there is a penalty for those violating the rule, may solve the problem. The difficulty lies in the question who can say that a girl does not make her own selection when she attends a competition. Her girl shall not vote and yet allow her to make her own selection?

In our estimation they're not only the finest, smartest, longest wearing suits ever offered at $50—they'd still be a matchless value if the price were $60. They're custom styled and custom needled of super-quality double-service worsteds that will outperform on ordinary fabric that will outwear an ordinary fabric two to one.
